***************************** AGC is AGC. It is not per band, it is per radio :-)
I do not know of a radio with per band AGC settings, or per season. Most radios don't let you adjust the threshold or slope -- or the decay rate of FAST and SLOW. With the K3 we allow you to tailor the AGC; we don't require that you tailor it. 73, Lyle KK7P ***************************** It is true that the AGC pertains to the radio and not the band, but the optimal AGC threshold setting does vary by band. On 80m, for example, I set the AGC threshold on my Ten-Tec Orion at about 20uV. On 10m, where the noise level is very low, I set it at 0.5uV. The Orion, incidentally, has fast, medium, and slow AGC settings, plus a custom "prog" setting, and one can set the threshold, decay rate and hang time independently for each speed. It is possible to spend hours fiddling with the Orion's AGC settings. 73, Jim W8ZR _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
